Overview

With a mix of cultural influences on the nation's cuisine, it's no wonder that Malaysian food is a lip-smackingly complex beast. We'll meet in the old district of Chow Kit and Kampung Baru, one of the last remaining districts that is yet to be developed into glassy high rises. Don't expect other foreigners. Stroll in this local neighbourhood of nightly street eats, sampling a variety of 15+ tastings, carefully curated for their culinary history. The flavours change across the year, but highlights include the fragrant bowls of laksa, hand stretched rotis, nasi lemak with piquant sambal and herbal chicken rendang, charcoal-grilled mackerel, and soothing iced cendol with custard-like durian. We'll end with a fine view of the mighty Petronas Twin Towers. I'm sure you have a lot of your plate, but here's some food for thought. While it's possible to attempt such a culinary marathon yourself, you'd be one sandwich short of a Malaysian picnic not to join me on our moveable food feast.

Meeting points

Meet outside the entrance of the Hilton Garden Inn *South* on the corner of Jalan Raja Alang and Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman. Note there is a Hilton Garden Inn North next door. It's easy to find, and your guide will be waiting at the street entrance.

End point

The tour concludes near the foot of the mighty Petronas Twin Towers. It's close to many of Kuala Lumpur's hotels. Our guide can help you find transport back to your hotel should you wish.
